This disease is theorized to be caused by abnormalities resulting from hyper-phosphorylation (fos-FAWR-uh-ley-shun) of tau proteins. Another hypothesis concerning the cause of this disease suggests that a buildup of beta-amyloid (AM-uh-loid) causes characteristic tangles and plaques in the brain. Other evidence suggests it is caused by a deficiency of acetylcholine (uh-seet-l-KOH-leen). For 10 points, name this disease that causes memory loss in its elderly sufferers.
